Hmmm I have never taken it before but from the looks of the ingredients in the product and of course the cost, at least for the 5lb bag that I saw, it doesn't seem like a bad deal at all for a pretty decent product

Is this the one that you are talking about Harvo?

I think it's that matrix he's thinking of, either way for 20 quid for 5lbs you can't complain!

And from a quick look it looks to be about half protein per serving, so not to bad

You get what you pay for to some extent. I was taking EAS which was ~$35 for a 5lb bag. It was a good source of protein and BCAAs, but I've found that Optimum Nutrition's Gold Standard 100% Whey works better for me.

Mixes well and tastes great. The web price is a bit high. It's $25 for 2lb..

Yeah the one thing that I look for in a protein is the amount of BCAAs and Proteins for the size of the tub you are getting and price. I couldn't spend 25$ for 2lbs even if it is optimum nutrition as that is out of my current budget but for 5lbs and 25$ for EAS as BJ's you cant beat that at all.

Well I guess I got the wrong matrix product but the one that Mr.Wright found actually doesn't sound half bad at all and provides you with the essential muscle building nutrients that you need and look for.
